ReviewsAmerican Detective is the most exciting, gritty novel yet in Loren Estleman's strong-selling, critically acclaimed Amos Walker hardboiled series. This time, the tough Detroit detective starts out trying to get to the bottom of the murder of the daughter of former Tigers pitcher Darius Fuller, and winds up discovering an illegal-immigrant smuggler and worse yet, an international organ-legging conspiracy. In classic Walker fashion, our witty, self-deprecating hero crosses paths with corrupt cops and ruthless gangsters, and, as always, treads on dangerous ground to get his man.
